Tell me what you think of these unique pink and gray bathroom ideas. The goal of today’s tips is to take your old fashioned pink ceramic tile bath out of the dark ages and make it so cool that you will have to leave the shower water running red hot all the time just to keep the mirror from frosting over!
Well, maybe I got a little carried away with that last statement but that is just how over the top I am with decorating the black, pink and gray bathroom that adjoins a bedroom that I decorated with a matching black, pink and gray gothic skull and crossbones bedding set.
The truth is that a space that at first glance was a decorator’s nightmare has turned into a before and after project of the variety that was perfect for a segment on a home improvement show on HGTV. Here’s the story of why I chose the black, pink and gray bedding and pink and gray bathroom accessories that you see in the pictures.
A family recently moved into an old house that had been inherited from an elderly grandparent. Like so many homes that are left when the owner passes away; it had great personality but it had not been updated since the 50s. The large rooms and beautiful woodwork was fantastic and the majority of the home was brought into this century with a new color scheme achieved with many gallons of paint. The biggest (and most expensive) challenge was updating the kitchen and one pink and gray bathroom that had a near perfect bathtub, commode (right down to the unblemished toilet seat) and tiled walls all in gray, black and pink.
Something told me that the owner had pulled the colors for the pink and black layout from one of Elvis’ early outfits. But since the teenage girl was not a fan of rockabilly, vintage or retro décor was not an option and neither was tearing out the powder pink and gray bathroom. Words cannot describe this teen girl’s delight at the reveal when she got an eyeful of her pink and gray skull and crossbones bed and bath. The skull towels and shower curtain was a perfect match to the decorations in her boudoir and the effect was very attractive if a little unusual.
The bottom line is that my clients were thrilled that they didn’t have to spring for a complete bathroom remodel and their daughter was so happy that I have made appointments for three of her friends to view my portfolio of teenage girls bedding and bedroom decorating ideas who are considering remodeling their rooms.
